This is an article published on the éirígí sligeach website in response to Labour party TD Colm Keaveney's attack on éirígí for protesting against the Windsor visit.

The country yesterday was abuzz with the visit of Obama to Ireland and the mainstream was aglow covering the event. There is no doubt he is popular in Ireland as evidenced by the tens of thousands who queued up and turned out to see him and went through airport type security to get a closer look. I would suppose there are two reasons for this and one is that everyone wants to be seen and associated with success and the other is that Irish people seem to get very proud of their country and want to show it off when important people or visitors in general show up. read full story / add a comment

Croke Park Conference Centre 31st May 8:30am Supported by the United Left Alliance This week a senior engineer told Cork City Councillors that 60% of that city’s water supply leaked out of the system. This situation is repeated up and down the country to one degree or another. However instead of investing the resources needed to repair our water supply as a matter of urgency this government is determined to press on with the crazy strategy of installing water meters in homes that don’t already have one. This is estimated to cost €600 million. The government intends to fund this by introducing a flat rate ‘utility charge’ next year and then once meters are installed to begin charging people based on their use of water. read full story / add a comment

The official Garda response to the release of the ‘rape tape’ last month was contrite and sympathetic, in accordance with the public mood of outrage. But behind the scenes, familiar tactics were deployed: Gardaí used the media to try to divert attention from the recording by maligning the women who released it. And while there was a lame attempt to blame the women for delaying the investigation in the first week, it now transpires that the Sergeant at the centre of affair still has not been interviewed by the Garda Ombudsman. read full story / add a comment

All are agreed, something amazing is happening right here and right now on this beautiful little planet. And, by Christ do we need it!!! A week ago, even in Spain, there wasn’t too much awareness of what was going on with the M-15 movement, but now, only days later and it appears that a bomb has gone off. Last look on the digital map of places participating in the #SPANISHREVOLUTION gave a count of 650 (yes that’s right SIX HUNDRED AND FIFTY) places around the planet expressing solidarity with what’s going on here in Spain, or being inspired to bring the revolution to their part of the world. read full story / add a comment

It has been weird being in Dublin security city the past week. It reminds me a lot of growing up in the police state of Queensland/Australia in the late '70's. On Thursday, I was stopped and searched by police five times before noon and shaken down by the Special Branch 3 times over the two daze. My poster (photo of Giusepe Conlon...with the words "Remember Giuseppe Conlon and All Victims of Empire") remains in police custody, confiscated by an Inspector under State Security legislation.

Pissed off with very high unemployment, a political system which is not working, a feeling that banks and the markets matter more than life itself, the youth, unemployed and precarious of Spain launched their revolt last Sunday. Three days on and many squares in the country are occupied and movements are building up under the banner of "Democracy Real, Ya! (Real Democracy, Now!) read full story / add a comment
